Lately I seem to find myself being attracted to the concept of balance. It got me to thinking of all of the things that we try to balance. For instance, check books, budgets, tires on the car, music in the car, meals, diet and on and on. We keep wanting balance, yet things seem to keep getting out of balance. So we continually find ourselves having to go back for a tune up or make little adjustments.

A couple of weeks ago, I was out walking and came upon a garage sale. As I was walking by, I noticed a mini-tramp. The thought of owning and using a mini-tramp had never really occurred to me, but I found myself walking over and checking the price on it. Five dollars! Seemed like quite a deal to me, so a bought it, took it home and put it in my office. I recalled from my reflexology (click here to find out about reflexology) classes that bouncing on a mini-tramp is good for your lymph gland reflexes and helps to balance your body. Seemed like a good thing to me. So I have started bouncing 10 minutes at a time. I am amazed at how quickly it increases your heart rate!

I also have recently found myself purchasing a hematite bracelet and then had a friend give me a hematite egg. I looked up on the internet to find out the healing attributes of hematite and found out that it helps to balance out the emotions and energies between the body, mind and spirit. Not only does it dissolve negativity, but actually transforms it into the energy of Universal Love.

I’m thinking that I must have a need to address balance in my life and maybe even suggest that each of you consider the level of balance that exists in your life. Balance is probably one of the goals we all are trying to reach either knowingly or unknowingly. We often seem to believe that we don’t have any control over the balance in our lives, but if you take time to focus on how balanced or out of balance you are, you certainly can make changes.

If you’re curious about how balanced your life is, take a moment to complete this short assessment - the Wheel of Life. Once you have an opportunity to see how bumpy the ride may be or an area or two that are out of kilter, click here for a complimentary coaching session. Coaching can assist you in obtaining the balance in your life that you’ve been longing for. Make time for your own “little tune-up”.

Jo Anne's Journey - 2006

 
For the next month or two, I'll be working on a temporary assignment with The John Henry Company. I'm acting as their interim Director of People and Performance Improvement.  
And I'm happy to announce that I received my Certificate for Reflexology on April 30th. That means I’ve completed all four levels of course work including 170 hours of study, practicum, written and applied techniques for the Footnotes for Health, LLC Reflexology Program. This program looks beyond the physical challenge to address the impact of emotional stresses on the body for a comprehensive application of the body/mind integration.

Sports Spouses - The Challenge of Being a Coach's Wife

Being a coach’s wife takes a special person. You automatically become the CEO of your household and family. You are the “glue” that holds it all together. When it’s time to move, you make all the arrangements. When it comes to dealing with the kids issues at school, you deal with the teachers. When it comes to soothing your spouse’s bruised ego after a loss, you’re the one who’s there for them.

When recently working with a group of coaches’ wives and asking the top three to five challenges of being a coach’s wife, the number one reason was loneliness followed by work/life balance, limited family time, lack of communication and dealing with change. Sound familiar?

Being a coach’s wife may be fulfilling enough for some women, but not for others. That certainly doesn’t mean that they don’t love their husbands or that they’re not supportive. It may just mean that they also need to be fulfilled as a person themselves. By working with a coach, women would have an opportunity to find out what it is that fulfills them. In addition, they can share experiences and build camaraderie.

Coaching is an opportunity for the wives to identify their own goals and issues, develop a plan for obtaining them and be held accountable.
